So over the years I had a small collection of knobs from things that didn't work out otherwise didn't want, Dave the knobs. Most are just too large for projects, like some gnarly suckers that came off a Peavey PA series mixer. There are few designs song the collection I like, but wondered if there were newer versions of at least smaller versions.
This one is similar to another style I have, but I like the indicator protrusion on these. Had anyone seen knobs on this fashion that don't command """""vintage""""" prices?

I've been working on refacing a pedal that would benefit from this style. Thanks.
Tayda has some like that but I think they're for knurled shafts. I used some like this but gold instead of silver and got them from LMS

Ah nice! Yeah those are some handsome knobs. I might snag some of those for another project. Ugh, I submitted a Tayda and LMS Friday! Would've been perfect, but I'll catch on the next one.
I kinda went down a rabbit hole after that link you shared just trying to find something remotely like what I was thinking (and from somewhere I hadn't recently submitted an order through), and though the style isn't exactly what I had imagined, I think I'm going to go with these jobbies (http://"https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Apem/PKJ50B14?qs=0WSWfj%252BtgBZUKSFXd0XNcA%3D%3D").
Here's what they look like, because Mouser can't be bothered to include a thumbnail:

And here's the actual knob I would like to find one day (right) and the other main knobs (left) which a bandmate always called "Darth Vader knobs":

A bit too large to really do anything with besides a one-pot project, though.
I thought about getting these (http://"https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Apem/430211B1-4?qs=RNTjZpLRzVQZ1T9UbqwnLQ%3D%3D"), but I like the look of the chamfer on the product above vs notch on the indicators with these.
